# 2013 Africa Cup of Nations squads

The 2013 Africa Cup of Nations was an international football tournament held in South Africa from 19 January until 10 February 2013.
The Confederation of African Football confirmed 9 January as the deadline for final squad submissions ahead of the tournament. The African confederation wanted all 23-man squad lists sent to its Cairo headquarters by midnight GMT on 9 January. Failing to do so would result in a fine and infringing countries will only be allowed to take a 22-man squad to the finals.
Along with their 23-man squads, countries were allowed to bring a delegation of 17 officials.
